Tornado Kills 24 in China

A very rare tornado struck Guandong province, China, on Thursday.

At least twenty-four people were killed and over two hundred and seventy-two were injured by the storm.

High winds, heavy rains, and egg sized hail accompanied the twister, in at part of the world that practically never sees them.

Over the last week southwest China has been dealing with winds and severe weather.

More than two hundred thousand people have been forced to evacuate, because of the storms, which have destroyed nearly ten thousand hectares of crops.
